Author and Ethnomusicologist DANIEL ATKINSON joins us for a look at his new book The Rediscovery of George "Nash" Walker: The Price of Black Stardom in Jim Crow AmericaThe book takes a deep look at the heroic and tragic life of actor, businessman, dancer, singer, producer GEORGE "NASH" WALKER, who, in the beginning of the 20th century, helped pave the way for just about every Black entertainer you love. Walker, his partner Williams, and his incredible wife Aida Overton Walker were literally household names known by millions...until time and subsequent eras of indifference all but erased their names. It's time to say their names again. Take a listen and learn why.
